Coming down the stretch on Sunday, the Houston Roughnecks couldn’t make the game-ending play, and the result was a 15-12 victory for the San Antonio Brahmas in the United Football League on Sunday.

The Brahmas scored 12 points in the final 2:24 against Houston and won on Ryan Santoso’s 51-yard field goal on the last snap of the game.

In the other games during the seventh week of the United Football League season:

· After scoring 117 points in their first six games, the Arlington Renegades went off in the seventh for a 47-23 victory over the Memphis Showboats on Saturday. Renegades quarterbacks Luis Perez threw three touchdown passes and Lindsey Scott Jr. had one, with tight end Sal Cannella and wide receiver J.P. Payton catching two apiece. While the Showboats converted on half of their 12 third-down snaps, they also lost two fumbles and two interceptions while the Arlington offense went 6-for-8 on third down.

· Birmingham wide receiver Kevin Austin Jr. turned a slant route into a 40-yard touchdown with 5:23 to play for the third lead change of the fourth quarter in the Stallions’ 30-26 victory over the St. Louis Battlehawks on Saturday. Birmingham still had to survive a blocked punt in the final minute to remain the league’s only undefeated team. Stallions quarterback Adrian Martinez completed 21-of-33 passes for 230 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions and ran seven times for 60 yards.

· In a game dominated by the defenses, Michigan running back Matthew Colburn II ran for 137 yards on 16 carries in the Panthers’ 22-9 victory over the D.C. Defenders on Sunday. The teams combined to convert 4-of-21 third-down snaps and went 0-of-3 on fourth-down attempts. But Michigan scored touchdowns on its first two possessions, with Colburn contributing runs of 23 and 53 yards on the first scoring series. In his first game for the Panthers, Bryce Perkins got most of the action at quarterback, completed 11-of-13 passes for 116 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions and ran twice for 13 yards. D.C. QB Jordan Ta’amu did not return to the game after getting sacked by Breeland Speaks in the third quarter.

The Week 7 results clinched a playoff berth for the Panthers, who will join the Stallions in the USFL Conference half of the United Football League semifinals.

The Roughnecks had a 12-3 lead on four field goals by J.J. Molson, including a 62-yarder, when San Antonio went on an 18-play, 62-yard touchdown drive. During the series, running back John Lovett picked up 2 yards on fourth-and-1 at the Houston 36-yard line. On fourth-and-goal at the Roughnecks 1, defensive tackle Keonte Schad got a facemask penalty after quarterback Kevin Hogan was stacked up for no gain.

Lovett then scored from 1 yard out with 2:24 to play, and Hogan’s 3-point conversion pass to tight end Cody Latimer allowed San Antonio to tie the game even though it had lost fumbles at the Houston 3 and 12 to end its first two possessions, set up a Houston field goal with a fumble on its 25 and thrown an interception.

After the Brahmas tied the game, cornerback Bryce Thompson caused Houston wide receiver Reggie Robertson Jr. to fumble on the kickoff return, and cornerback Teez Tabor recovered for San Antonio at the Roughnecks 43-yard line.

The Brahmas handed off to Lovett five times, including for a 6-yard gain on third-and-4 before Santoso came on to kick the winning field goal.
